look at IBC 903.3.5.1: No more than 20 sprinklers AND you still have
to verify discharge with hydraulic calculations. NFPA 13 also touches
the subject and effectively says apply portions of 13 as required by
the AHJ. 903.4 identifies that monitoring is NOT required.

it's not a good idea due to non-fire valves, water meters and alarm
requirements. Pro's and con's? Any specific code section prohibiting
it?
Thanks,
